Tech4Good: June – Corporate Citizenship

  • Article

In This Issue…

Through our Corporate Citizenship work we meet inspiring people and organisations from across Asia Pacific that have been striving to make the world a better place through the use of technology. Throughout the year, we feature those organisations, their staff and the work they do in our Tech4Good e-newsletter and on our Corporate Citizenship Blog. In this issue, we want to bring you the best of that coverage. It’s a great honour for us to work with people and organisations that are making a difference in the world.
